Reached Goal!!!

I reached my goal today..I was so excited!!!  I got on the scale 3 different times just to be sure.  If that were not enough I worked form home today and must have ran upstairs 3 plus times just to be sure.  I never imagined that I would actually hit a weight loss goal, because I never have in my life.  I have been overweight since I was a kid. when I had my RNY last February I still did not think that I would hit this goal.  having failed at everything in my life I figured I'd lose some of the weight but not all of it.  Believe me when I tell you I had stalls that lasted forever, one lasted  2 months.  Last week the scale climb to 155 for Sunday weigh in, stayed there for 3 days and declined the rest of the week. I am just so amazed.

If any of you are still pondering surgery, or in a rut, just know that it is possible. Believe me, If I can do it so can you. 

To celebrate, Hubby is buying me a new outfit and taking me to see Miranda Lambert next Friday.  We have a babysitter for the night and we will get away and celebrate!  I even told him he could pick the outfit.

Thanks to all of you we encouraged me and picked me up when I was feeling down!
